Configuration guidelines
When you configure port mirroring, follow these guidelines:
• Layer 2 Ethernet ports can be configured as either mirroring ports or monitor ports.
• You can configure multiple source ports, but only one monitor port for a local mirroring group.
• To ensure normal operation of mirroring, do not enable the spanning tree feature on the monitor
port.
• A port can be configured only in a mirroring group.
